Libby Whaley - Founder, Premier Stylist

Libby Whaley

Founder, Premier Stylist

Bringing 24 years of hair expertise to the Mount. Libby closed her books to new clients in Feb 2020 to focus on growing the salon and supporting her team of incredible stylists.

Libby grew up in Tauranga, then spent 15 years in Auckland with Servilles (she owned the Ponsonby branch for 6 years)

She wanted to open her own salon with a different way of thinking - with hair as just one part of a holistic attitude to wellbeing

Stepping back from doing hair, Libby is excited to continue learning about business and the best ways to run a growing salon. Not having tech experience she is spending time this year diving in to ways to reach more people - clients and potential team members - through the website and social media.
